foreign policy it's about what the president should be or will be doing and there's a general sense that of course the u.s. will be intervening wherever it can so that's the idea that's being perpetuated it's not even a matter of debate really president obama signs off on a kill list every week and sets up new drone bases overseas and somehow his foreign policies are not perceived as aggressive and do not steer a debate here at home there's also this phony argument that you hear every now and then that president obama is not half as aggressive as george w. bush would have been or mitt romney would have been and it seems there is a notion that as long as there are no u.s. boots on the ground as long as wars are fought either with a remote control or through proxies it's a success and it's not perceived as aggressive again president obama's hit and run style libya intervention it was touted as a success then the u.s. ambassador died and it became more difficult to brag about libya and ignored the mess that we view it turned into so it very much seems like it's not about the president's act
